Chapter 127 Grievance
Back in the fishing village, Fang Lanxin was right next door; they ate and slept together, and there seemed to be no distance between them. But now that they've come to the port city and seen everything about Fang Lanxin with their own eyes, they realize that Fang Lanxin seems to be even more capable than they imagined, as if she's from a completely different world.
Fang Lanxin walked over and handed the red date and white fungus soup to Cheng Yan. She smiled and said calmly, "Whether in the fishing village or the port city, I am Fang Lanxin, the President Fang you know. Eat up!"
"Thank you, Ms. Fang!" Cheng Yan nodded immediately, instantly becoming close to Fang Lanxin.
She smiled and looked at Fang Lanxin: "I must give this a good talking-to when I get back, so they don't think our President Fang is just some ordinary person!"
Upon hearing this, Fang Lanxin found it incredibly adorable. She reached out and ruffled Cheng Yan's hair, saying, "Don't worry too much during this time. Just eat and drink as usual, and don't worry about anything, okay?"
"yes!"
"I'll just treat this as an annual leave!"
"Mr. Fang, don't worry, I will definitely study hard and rest well!"
Cheng Yan laughed and then made a face at Fang Lanxin.
Looking at her adorable appearance, Fang Lanxin knew that this was probably what youth looked like.
"Mother!"
"I miss you so much!"
When Huo Siya heard that Fang Lanxin had returned, she rushed over immediately. Upon seeing Fang Lanxin, Huo Siya ran over and hugged her tightly.
"Mom, you're finally back! Why are you so dark and thin, you look like a country bumpkin?"
Huo Siya felt extremely distressed seeing Fang Lanxin like this.
She hurriedly grabbed Fang Lanxin's hand and noticed that her once well-maintained hands had become rough: "Mother, what are you thinking? You... why are you giving up being the matriarch of the Huo family and going to the fishing village to suffer? What are you doing?"
What brings you here?
Fang Lanxin withdrew her hand and asked a question indifferently.
She seemed completely unmoved by her daughter's joy, remaining as indifferent as ever.
Seeing her like this, Huo Siya felt as if a bucket of cold water had been poured over her head. She belatedly realized what was happening and looked at Cheng Yan beside her, frowning slightly: "Who is this?"
"He is an employee of my company."
Fang Lanxin replied calmly.
Cheng Yan realized that something was wrong, so she silently stood up and walked outside.
"Mr. Fang, I think your garden is very beautiful. I would like to go and see it."
"Go."
Fang Lanxin's voice was very gentle.
Now, Huo Siya felt a drastic drop in her expectations!
She never imagined that one day Fang Lanxin would treat outsiders more politely than she would treat herself.
Why? Why is this happening?
Huo Siya's eyebrows furrowed tightly as she looked at Fang Lanxin with a wronged expression, choking back tears as she said, "Mother, why, why are you always kinder to her than to me? Why?"
"Am I not good to you?" Fang Lanxin frowned, looking at Huo Siya.
Huo Siya hesitated for a moment, then realized that something seemed off. She frowned and said, "Mom, that's not what I meant. I was just wondering why you're so nice to outsiders, but always so cold to me?"
"Didn't I give you freedom?" Fang Lanxin frowned, looking at Huo Siya with confusion. "Isn't this what you wanted?"
Huo Siya never expected that Fang Lanxin would give her such an answer.
She thought for a moment, then took a deep breath before asking, "Mom, will you be home for New Year's Eve dinner?"
"meeting."
Fang Lanxin agreed without the slightest hesitation.
Now, Huo Siya finally felt a little better, and then said in a low voice, "Mom, I want to stay with you for a day, is that okay?"
“Okay.” Fang Lanxin nodded calmly and agreed: “Uncle Hu, prepare a room for her.”
Hu Zi nodded immediately and hurriedly began to tidy up.
"Mom, I haven't seen you in so long. Can we go for a walk together?"
"I want to go shopping, will you come with me?"
"By the way, we should get a facial. Look at your face, it's all so dark."
Huo Siya immediately took advantage of the situation and grabbed Fang Lanxin's hand, staring at her expectantly.
Fang Lan thought for a moment and nodded: "Okay, let's go."
With the New Year just around the corner, it's time to buy some nice things and reward my employees.
Huo Siya happily followed Fang Lanxin out, but instead of going to the big shopping mall she wanted, they went to a department store.
After entering, Huo Siya looked at Fang Lanxin with some confusion: "Why did we come to a place like this, Mother? When have we ever come here to buy anything?"
"I need to prepare some year-end benefits for my employees. Come and see what's suitable." Fang Lanxin glanced at Huo Siya: "Aren't you going to start your own studio? Don't you need to give out year-end bonuses?"
Hearing this, Huo Siya sighed and said sullenly, "Mom, you don't know what I originally wanted to do, but my brother was unwilling and didn't support it, so now I can't do it and can only work for others."
So that's how it is.
Fang Lanxin glanced at Huo Siya, then said indifferently, "Aren't the jewels and resources you have enough? Why do you have to rely on your brother? Isn't it better to rely on yourself?"
Huo Siya originally thought that Fang Lanxin would speak up for her, but she never expected that she would say such a thing.
"Mom, my brother won't help me. Could you please help me?" Huo Siya shook Fang Lanxin's arm. "Could you lend me a million? I promise I'll pay you back in six months, okay?"
Previously, one million was nothing to Huo Siya, but now all her money has been taken by the Chen family, leaving her only with the Huo family shares. However, it's not time for dividends yet, so Huo Siya has no money at all.
Huo Siya glanced at Fang Lanxin, then said indifferently, "Then let's talk about it after you get your year-end bonus. I'm starting a new project right now, and I'm very tight on funds. I can't come up with a million!"
"Mom, why won't you give me a million?"
"I've already apologized, I've already said I was wrong, why are you still treating me like this? How could you do this to me!"
Huo Siya looked at Fang Lanxin with a wronged expression, and tears fell down her face.
"Mom, are you still angry with me?"
